Cramarossa, 24, was a third round pick in 2011 (No. 65 overall) and has recorded 10 points (4G / 6A) in 49 games with the Ducks this season. Cramarossa could make his Canucks’ debut in San Jose on Thursday.
Fast is believed to have separated his shoulder Tuesday vs. the Capitals. The injury would sideline Fast indefinitely and move Matt Puempel back into the Rangers’ lineup on Thursday.
Vanek has had a strong year in Detroit after signing a one-year deal with the Red Wings in the summer. With the Red Wings being sellers at the deadline for the first time in 25 years, Vanek’s fate was sealed. He heads to Florida with 15 goals and 23 assists (38 points) in 48 games this season.
Callahan, 25, has 14 goals and 22 assists (36 points) in 53 games with Grand Rapids this season. Callahan is a scrappy player that will replace Steve Ott, who was traded to Montreal late on Tuesday night.
Whitney has collected 11 goals and 17 assists (28 points) in 55 games with the San Antonio Rampage this season, but will head to the Tucson Roadrunners (AHL) in a minor league deal.
Ranford, 24, had six goals and 11 assists (17 points) in 46 games with the Texas Stars and Tucson Roadrunners (AHL) this season. He will report to San Antonio.
Vasilevskiy allowed one goal on 40 shots in the Lightning’s win over the Senators on Monday. It was a great outing for Vasilevskiy, who took over for Ben Bishop who was traded to the Kings on the weekend. Vasilevskiy made 26 saves on 27 shots in the Lightning’s 3-1 win over the Hurricanes back on New Year’s Eve.
Ullmark was scheduled to start last night, but Robin Lehner returned from concussion protocol to take the Sabres’ crease. He returns to Rochester, where he has gone 20-20-2 with a 2.90 GAA and .910 SV% this season.

Kampfer was a minus-2 with two shots in 15:44 TOI in the Rangers loss to the Capitals last night. Kampfer filled in for the injured Kevin Klein and Dan Girardi, but the Rangers traded for Brendan Smith on Tuesday and he is expected to slide into the lineup going forward.
Pouliot has spent the majority of the year with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, where he has registered five goals and nine assists (14 points) in 32 games this season. The 23-year-old had 14 points (2G / 12A) in 63 career NHL games and could be in the lineup on Wednesday because the Penguins are dealing with a multitude of injuries on the back-end.
Rooney, 23, has registered 17 points (10G / 7A) in 57 games with Albany this season and signed his entry-level deal on Monday. There’s no word whether Rooney will make his NHL debut on Thursday in Washington.
Goldobin, 21, was a first round pick in 2014, but has only appeared in 11 career NHL games since. He has had a really nice 2016-17 season in the AHL, where he was third on the San Jose Barracuda in points with 41 (15G / 256A) in 46 games. He is expected to report to the Canucks opposed to Utica.
Hansen spent the first nine and a half seasons of his NHL career with the Canucks after being drafted by them in 2004. Hansen had a career-high 22 goals last year, but has been hampered by injuries this season—he has 13 points (6G / 7A) in 28 games and heads to San Jose where he will likely land a bottom-6 role.
Ott has collected three goals and three assists (six points) in 42 games for the Red Wings this season. Ott brings some grit, toughness and good face-off ability to the Canadiens’ bottom-6 but likely won’t see a tonne of playing time down the stretch.
Hansen is a potential trade piece for the Canucks, so scratching him the day before the deadline makes a lot of sense. Borna Rendulic will replace Hansen in the lineup.
Miller allowed four goals on 26 shots in the Canucks’ loss to the Sharks on Saturday. He has lost four of his last five starts while allowing a combined 16 goals on 162 shots (.901 SV%). Tonight he faces the Red Wings for the second time—he allowed three goals on 27 shots in a 3-1 loss in Detroit in November.
Davidson has had a long journey to the NHL as a sixth round pick, but has registered just one assist in 28 games this season. Davidson will likely find playing time hard to come by in Montreal.
Desharnais has been regressing for the last few years, but has really struggled this season, registering just 10 points (4G / 6A) in 31 games with the Canadiens. The Oilers need some help in the face-off dot and Desharnais will bring that as a bottom-6 forward.
Bishop stopped 20 of 21 shots in a win over the Oilers in his final start with the Lightning before being traded to the Kings. He heads to Los Angeles on a five-game winning streak, having posting a .953 SV% and one shutout over that stretch. He will have a lot easier playing behind a defensive Kings squad.
